Story
Hello! I’m Burton, a dazzling dapple bully with beautiful blue eyes and a vibrant personality. I was found wandering as a stray, but now I’m ready to find my forever home where I can share all my love. I’ve had some wonderful times with my finder’s kids and their dogs, and I must say, I thrive in a busy, playful environment! Kids and dogs are my buddies, and we have a blast together. However, I’m not a fan of feline friends, so no cats, please! I know my basic commands, and I’m eager to learn more. I’m a playful guy who loves to romp around and have fun, but I also enjoy my snuggle time! One thing to note is that I can be a little protective of my food when other dogs are around, so I would do best in a home where I can be fed separately during meal times. If you’re looking for a loyal companion who will bring joy, playfulness, and lots of love into your life, look no further! I would love to be a part of your family! Visit me at the shelter and see how we can make great memories together.

He was abused and starved at one point in his life. I never could get him out of his starving mindset. He cannot be left alone with a bag of dog food as he will eat the entire bag. Regurgitate and keep eating. He currently lives with 10 other dogs and 6 cats. I've been diagnosed with a terminal illness and unfortunately have to rehome most of my animals.

Story
Hello my name is Bella! I am the sweetest petite 45 pound 4 year old lab/pittie mix. I am a snugglebug who loves belly rubs and couch cuddling. I live with my foster parents and two human brothers and Cody the cat. I love all people but when we are at home I especially like my foster mom.  I follow her around everywhere! I am fully house-trained! I do like to sleep in my crate during the day when everyone is gone and at night when it's bedtime. I love to go for walks in the woods and around the neighborhood and have been learning to walk with a gentle leader to help keep me focused. I can sometimes be reactive to other dogs. In my past, mainly dominant females gave me a hard time, so it would be best to do slow introductions. In my previous foster home,  I liked to help my foster mom with kittens and puppies. I love them!! I have been learning the commands stay, place, heal and watch and it would be great to continue learning those in my new home.  I am calm and quiet but I do get the zoomies and I do love a good play, so it would be great to have a fenced backyard. My foster mom wants you to know that she thinks that my forever family is going to be so blessed and lucky to have me. Oh and if you love adventures I absolutely love to ride in the car.   I can't wait to meet you! Love, Bella Applications can be filled out at www.piedmontanimalrescue.com/adopt!  Petfinder and Adopt-A-Pet does NOT send us Applications.

This is BELLA! Bella is only 9 months old and she was taken to a vet for euthanasia because she had a rectal prolapse. The prolapse was due to hookworms and could have easily been avoided by administering a simple de-wormer. PAR stepped in and Bella has been treated for both the worms and the prolapse and is ready and excited to find her new family. Bella is a playful puppy and would like a playmate to help keep her busy. She is dog friendly and is good with older kids (not toddlers because of her 60lb size combined with puppy energy).  Applications can be filled out at www.piedmontanimalrescue.com/adopt!  Petfinder and Adopt-A-Pet does NOT send us Applications.   We receive many applications and many never respond after processing GREATLY delaying the pets forever home.  Please only apply if you are serious about adopting.  Please also make sure your pets are up to date on you species applicable Vaccines (rabies, Distemper/Parvo, FVRCP, Bordetella), spayed/neutered, and on Heartworm prevention if a canine.   The adoption fee includes their age appropriate vaccinations(DA2PP and Bordetella), Dewormer, spay/neuter, microchip, heartworm test as well as the registration of their microchip information to you.

Story
Hazel was initially surrendered by her previous owners and came to us very skinny, but with lots of love and care, she is gaining weight and blossoming into the sweet, snuggly companion she was always meant to be. Hazel loves snuggling on the couch, playing with toys, going for walks, car rides, and even swimming in the lake! Sweet, loving, and a true “velcro dog” – she’ll want to stick by your side every chance she gets. Great with every dog she meets! (not been introduced to cats yet). Fully crate trained, no accidents in the crate. She’s doing great with her vet visits, and while she needs some basic obedience training, she’s eager to learn and full of love. She’s a bit shy at first, but once she warms up to new people, she’ll shower you with kisses and affection. She loves going out in public, especially to breweries, and is a perfect car companion. If you’re looking for a sweet, affectionate, and playful dog to bring into your home, Hazel might be the perfect match for you!

***Sponsored adoption fee***Princess Elsa is a 2 year old Pitbull mix, 55 pounds. She is what we call a "velcro" dog. She wants to be in your lap, on your leg, never too far from her person. She sticks to you like glue. If you don't care about personal space, this is the dog for you. She is a bit overwhelmed here in the shelter and when she doesn't know what to do, she freezes in place, so we call her Elsa. Princess Elsa would benefit from basic obedience training. It's a great way to bond with your new dog and it gives a timid dog like her some much needed confidence. Elsa is looking for a patient person or family that can give her structure and love so she can learn that people are good. She is up to date on vaccines, has tested negative for heartworm disease and her adoption fee includes a voucher for the mandatory spay and microchip.
